Help Restore Anna's Health: Urgent Dental Surgery Needed

Donation protected
Hi, I’m Anna Simpson, and I am reaching out to ask for your help during a time of unimaginable hardship. I’ve always been someone who pushes through, no matter the challenge, because I’ve had to. But today, I find myself at a breaking point. I’m dealing with an ongoing, severe dental issue that is not only causing me constant, excruciating pain but also threatening my health, career, and well-being.

For years, I’ve struggled with gum disease, worsened by trauma I experienced in my past. Due to circumstances beyond my control—an upbringing without proper dental care and the aftermath of domestic violence—I now face the very real possibility of losing all my teeth. The pain is relentless, leaving me with constant headaches, extreme sensitivity to light, and swelling in my face. I fear that the infection is spreading through my body, making every day harder to bear.

I’ve always been the one who helps others, who puts on a brave face and carries the weight of my responsibilities alone. I’ve worked hard to support myself and my family, despite the challenges life has thrown at me. But now, the pain has become so overwhelming that I can no longer ignore it. I’m physically and emotionally exhausted, and I can’t keep going like this. I need help.

I am in desperate need of dental surgery that will cost around $45,000—a sum I can’t possibly manage on my own. My insurance won’t cover the procedure, and my financial situation is already stretched thin. I am responsible for caring for my elderly mother, and I’m also burdened with student loan debt from a career I never got the chance to pursue. I studied to be an automotive mechanic but faced rejection simply because I’m a woman, leaving me unable to practice in the field I worked so hard for.

I’m reaching out because I need your help to make it through this. The pain has made it impossible for me to do what I love—interacting with the community, creating content, and engaging with the world in the way I used to. Right now, I’m just surviving, pushing myself to go to work every day, even through the pain, just to make ends meet.

If you know me, you know I’ve always been there for others, and now, for the first time, I’m asking for help. Anything you can contribute will go directly toward my surgery and recovery, and I will be forever grateful for your support. Your kindness and generosity will not only help me reclaim my health, but also my ability to work, to heal, and to get back to being the person I was before this pain took over my life.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read my story and for any help you can offer. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference.

With deep gratitude,
Anna Simpson
